I am not sure I understand the reasons why you need this, can you
please elaborate?

I remember we talked about using a "parent" device to deal with device
attaching to PM domains (genpd). However, since the DT bindings for
"warming devices" was concluded to consist by a single property
("#cooling-cells") as a part of the PM domain provider node, this
seems not to be needed.

By looking at patch 4/7, you are attaching devices via
of_genpd_add_device() and I don't see any need for using a "parent" in
there.

Can $subject patch be dropped or what am I missing?

Kind regards
Uffe
